Abstract:The sputtering ratios of stainless steel, tungsten and molybdenum under mercury ion bombardment have been measured for ion energies between 15 and 100 keV. The measurements were made using a 100 keV ion source and the sputtering ratio was determined by the weight loss method using an electrostatic balance. The results are compared with available data where this is possible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
